West Virginia natives FamZ and the HooliganZ have officially released their long-awaited mixtape UGLY on 4/20. The band has continually stepped outside the box to create unique music to keep fans entertained and new fans rolling in. With 19 stellar tracks they are showcasing the talent of every band member along with countless others local and afar.
Each song is venomous, listening will either shake the hate out of you or help it fester. The lyrics come straight from experiences, experiences we all have as young adults especially those from the bands stomping grounds of Mercer County, West Virginia. The members of the band know exactly how to express themselves and it can be so hard for others. But with the right music you don’t have to. The music does it for you.

However, I was asked if I could still cover Oklahoma's Locust Grove, as they are represented by the same publicist as Blacktop Mojo. So California's sons would play in Oklahoma, and Oklahoma's sons would play in California. Sounds fair enough I said. Then I downloaded Locust Grove's Monster EP (released August 2017) and almost got a speeding ticket and blew the speakers in my car. Wow! Now I was more than excited to see them live. They certainly did not disappoint and put on a spectacular show. The four piece Hard Rock band bring a heavy rhythm section that is perfectly rounded off with mature vocals. There are no gimmicks with this Rock Band, it was a set of well written songs performed wit…
